    dealers get jail

    Then we arrest a 17 year old POC male because of a dime bag was calculated using police math to be 1 billion dollars street value and clearly dealer level.

    And “therapy” turns out to be taxpayer funded rehab places where people pet fucking horses to get over their Marijuana “addiction” and atheists are forced to pray.

      I went to state funded rehab outa jail… They were putting people with multiple clean years under belt on suboxone. 🙄 while pushing hard on AA, which does come across as a religious cult to me, while the principals are mostly sound, the people sent into these places to proselytize, don’t have anything other than a Christian god to project into a “higher power”…instead of it being you and the people and world around you.

      What’s the point of mentioning the accused’s race? You fucking Americans are tiring with that shit

        Because the war on drugs disproportionately impacts certain races over others. I mention race because race is relevant to the issue.

        But yeah thanks for stereotyping in a comment telling at me for stereotyping. I enjoy seeing my point made.

          Unless you all forget the skin colour of the person next to you, your country will stay in the same shitty situation.

            Yes I often tell people that we can better solve problems by pretending that they do not exist.

            Instead of admitting that racism does exist and policies have to be crafted for the very imperfect world that we have now. We should go ahead with laws that assume perfect people act perfectly. Because if we assume this the power of wishful thinking will render it so.

              Go on and see how nothing changes unless you all see yourselves as Americans and just that, and stop giving a shit about skin color

                Hey way to address the points I made, you know instead of just waiting for your turn to rephrase your position. You have completely changed my view. I know accept that if we ignore racism it doesn’t exist.

                All ideology can do is reassert itself indefinitely

            I don’t believe that the solution is ignoring rather obvious physical differences, what I think would make a difference is the understanding that such differences are no indication of a person’s character.
